Ex Yelloway Carr.
Back in the late 1980s, AJ & NM Carr of Pluckley had just put into service this wonderful looking ex Yelloways Plaxton Panorama Elite bodied AEC Reliance. WDK 646K was, for a short while, a contemporary of their last ex Black & White Daimler Roadliner in service . . . the two having no doubt met up at Cheltenham when much younger.
A few days later, I was fortunate enough to capture the ex Yelloways Reliance at work on a private hire in Rye, with Mrs Carr at the helm (posted elsewhere on here). Oddly, whilst the Roadliner still exists in their yard, the AEC is no more. I think its remains were once resident in a famous Kentish dealer's yard.
